MACVC Meeting Minutes & Highlights
The annual MACVC meeting was held on Nov 11, 2007 at DeSales. The agenda topics sent beforehand were covered during the meeting. Final team alignments were decided (can be found on the Teams link on the main page. The North division is the smallest in 2007, so the North teams may be looking for more out of division matches. League operations were reviewed. Aside from divisional alignments & the inclusion of Juniata, Phila Univ, Valley Forge Christian College and Rutgers New Brunswick there were no items to vote upon. There were no key discussions at the meeting. Divisional contact information is below & in the Latest News section.
